Kevin Durant's list of desired trade destinations could push Minnesota out of the bidding
The Rockets reportedly have a 'firm offer' to trade for Suns star Kevin Durant, but Phoenix continues to be underwhelmed with Houston's valuation of the All-Star forward. There has yet to be a clear indication of what that offer specifically entails, though Rockets Wire explored the financial possibilities last week. In fact, reports have indicated that the Suns are relatively uninspired by the options involving all three of Durant's desired destinations — the Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, and Miami Heat. Advertisement That has led to speculation that a team not on Durant's list could perhaps win the day, and take the risk that they can eventually convince him of a long-term partnership before his current contract expires in the 2026 offseason. Most notably, the team with the most buzz around that scenario seems to be the Minnesota Timberwolves. But according to The Athletic's Sam Amick, who spoke on Wednesday's podcast episode of The Athletic NBA Daily, the Timberwolves aren't bidding much (if at all) unless they get an indication that the former Most Valuable Player (MVP) and 15-time All-Star is happy to go there. 'Minnesota is not gonna play ball until they get the signal Kevin wants to play there,' Amick said. 'Tim Connelly, in particular, their GM... personality wise, he's a culture lifter. He's a guy that wants people that want to be there. That's something that matters to him. If the messaging continues that Kevin would come in while dragging his feet, then the Wolves are not going to put much on the table.' That would seemingly leave the Rockets and Heat as the only teams on both lists — that is, teams actively involved in Durant trade discussions with the Suns while also being an acceptable destination to the player. Without being on both lists, there might be other teams that explore potential parameters, but it remains to be seen if any would actually surrender significant assets if they are trading for Durant against his will. Advertisement Thus, even if an offer from the Rockets or Heat is viewed by the Suns as underwhelming, it's entirely possible that it might end up being the best one they get.

Former Yankee Gary Sanchez torments old team in clutch Orioles moment
Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free For parts of six seasons, Gary Sánchez was a Yankees mainstay. Advertisement Friday night, he provided a flashback to his days in pinstripes. The former Yankee had one of the big hits of the evening, a two-run single that helped the Orioles win in The Bronx, 5-3, to continue the Bombers' struggles. With the bases loaded and two outs in the first inning, he ripped a 2-2 Max Fried sweeper into left field to drive in two runs. In the fifth, his single was part of a rally that helped the Orioles get even at three runs apiece. 'It feels good to come back here after spending so many years here,' Sánchez said through a translator. 'I know the stadium really well, and I feel really comfortable playing here. Baltimore Orioles catcher Gary Sánchez (99) hits a two-run RBI single during the first inning when the New York Yankees played the Baltimore Orioles on Friday, June 20, 2025 at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, NY. Robert Sabo for NY Post 'It feels good because we got the victory; because we got the win; not because it was against them. It doesn't matter who the opponent is. It just feels good to get that hit there and get the win.' Advertisement Sánchez has bounced around since leaving the Yankees following the 2021 season. The Orioles are his sixth team, with previous stints on the Twins, Mets, Padres and Brewers. He had only flashed the power that he was known for as a Yankee since his departure. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS He wasn't having a great season so far this year, raising his slash line to .205/.294/.341 with a .635 OPS after Friday. At least that's when the veteran catcher made an impact against his old team. Baltimore Orioles pitcher Félix Bautista hugs Baltimore Orioles catcher Gary Sánchez after the final out of the ninth inning. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post 'I would say it's pretty normal, every time I come back,' he said. 'I just like playing here. You see the ball pretty well and it's a really good stadium.' Advertisement When Sánchez walked to the plate for his first at-bat, there were boos. He didn't hear them. 'I was so focused on that at-bat,' said Sánchez, who hit 138 home runs as a Yankee with an .804 OPS. 'I'm trying to focus on what I need to do, that I didn't hear what they were doing or what they wanted to do.'
